The Engines must not pass this board is the most familiar to me. Unless of course it's hauling a dozen or so stake wagons loaded up with a shrubbery? I've had a dig through the old stuff I have here because I was convinced that I had an appropriate sign. I found etches Wizard LS003, Mike's Models 711, Smith's LN4 and Tiny Signs photo No79. Epic fail. Closest I found was "All down goods & mineral trains must stop dead here". Which is still neither use nor ornament.

I was hoping KNP would spot it and save me from this. The strut on the inside of your personnel door goes the wrong way. My dad, a builder said the easy way to remember is hangman . See my sketch. The strut should be supporting the otherwise unsupported rail. This is the best solution short of redoing it An ‘X’ brace instead 6 3 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
